ps. [Baoxi County, it should be West County]

In the cold winter season, the north wind is howling, and the crystal palace is as warm as spring, Meng Chang and Mrs. Hua Rui are still living a life of drunken dreams and death, and he has not yet realized that the Shu Kingdom is accelerating its demise.

It's just that the next moment, the news that Xingzhou was captured by the Song army came back to Chengdu, and Meng Chang was angry, and the cups and saucers flew wildly, and suddenly the ground of the Crystal Palace was full of broken glass.

Madame Blossom comforted her, "Your Majesty, calm your anger. ”

"Why did the Song army march so fast, Concubine Ai, you see that this Xingzhou assassin history openly abandoned the city and handed over the city to others." The more Meng Chang spoke, the more annoyed he became.

"Your Majesty, this may be a risky move by the Blue Thorn Soldiers."

Meng Chang sighed for a long time: "That's it, that's it, the enemy is now, and there is no doubt about employing people......"

When his mood stabilized, he ordered the Chengdu guards to escort grain and ordnance to the front line......

On the way of Wang Zhaoyuan's march, he received the news that the Northern Song army had captured Xingzhou City, and he immediately ordered the march, but the road was narrow, and the road was not easy to walk, but now although the snow has stopped, the road is becoming more and more slippery.

The solicitation made Han Baozheng hear that Xingzhou was broken, so he abandoned Shannan and retreated to Xi County, so there may be a glimmer of life.

Since Wang Quanbin's side captured Xingzhou, he left a part of his troops to guard Xingzhou City, and at the same time ordered people to send officials from Fengzhou to temporarily take over Xingzhou's political and military affairs.

"Marshal Qiqi Wang, another road in the mountains leads to Xixian, that day Lan Siwan abandoned the city and left, that is, he fled along this road, and the last general also heard that Shu recruited Han Baozheng to hear that Xingzhou City was broken, and led the Shu soldiers to the west. Zhao Chongtao defended at Jianmen Pass, and Yi Shenzheng was stationed in Xingyuan Mansion east of Xingzhou. ”

"Timely rain, it is reported that Han Baozheng is not good at leading the troops, and this is the time for our army to break through." Wang Quanbin stood in the camp of the handsome tent, patting his hand on the desk, "The three cities of Xixian, Xingzhou, and Xingyuanfu are each other's horns, and now my Great Song Dynasty has captured Xingzhou, as for the other two cities, it is imperative for my Great Song Dynasty to go to the west." ”

"The order went down, and ordered the Ma army to command the envoy Yande as a vanguard officer, leading 30,000 troops to attack Xixian, and it was bound to break the city within three days." Wang Zhaoyuan ordered, and the army immediately sent troops.

At the same time, Wang Quanbin put the target in other places, and he ordered Cui Yanjin, Zhao Xin, Li Shoujie, Kang Yanze and other soldiers to lead the troops respectively to attack more than 20 villages in Shipu, Yuguan and Baishuige.

In Xixian County, the thorn Shi Lan Siwan sat on a stone dejectedly, like a lost dog, some time ago, the reinforcements were not received, and the Song army was eyeing him, and he had no choice but to abandon Xingzhou City.

It's just that the next moment Han Baozheng led the troops to hurry over, and when he learned that the destruction of Xingzhou City was the assassin Shi Lan Siwan took the initiative to abandon the city, he immediately walked over murderously.

"Where's your blue thorn history?"

"Han Zhao is the envoy, my family's assassination history is not here." Pi will see the angry Han Baozheng and want to stop him.

"Get out of the way—" Han Baozheng swung his fist and knocked the general to the ground.

"Woo-" the general sobbed unwillingly, covering his eyes, "what am I doing here?" ”

Han Baozheng walked up to Lan Siwan murderously and said sharply: "Wu Na thief, it turns out that Xingzhou City was abandoned by your order. ”

"Han Zhao begged for the envoy, this is also the last resort of the lower officials......" Lan Siwan didn't finish speaking, and was knocked out of two front teeth by Han Baozheng with a punch.

Lan Siwan immediately covered his mouth and silently swallowed the blood and teeth into his stomach, when there were only less than 10,000 defenders in Xingzhou, he asked for help from Han Baozheng, but this guy was delayed.

"Shameless bandits." Han Baozheng kicked up and kicked at Lan Siwan's lower abdomen.

"Ahh

Han Baozheng ordered the army to strictly guard Xixian County, and Li Jin and others patrolled the gate of Xixian County every day.

A few more days passed, on the third day of the twelfth month. Wang Quanbin sent Ma Jundu to command Shi Yande to Xixian under the banner of vanguard.

General Liu Sanping suddenly went to the big tent of Han Baozheng's military camp, "Han commanded the envoy, the vanguard of the Song army has arrived in the city." ”

Han Baozheng was still lying on the Hu bed, when he suddenly heard Liu Sanping report that the Song army was coming.

"How many troops did the Song army come this time?"

Liu Sanping trembled and said, "A total of ...... Thirty thousand. ”

Hearing 30,000, Han Baozheng was also taken aback, "This ...... I ordered not to send troops, and at the same time sent 10,000 soldiers of our army to the city on the back of the mountain, and formed a formation to consolidate itself. ”

At this time, Li Jin was also included in the military account, "The Song army came with 30,000 this time. Pioneer Shi Yande held a forty-pound iron gun in his hand and threatened to break the city within three days. ”

Han Baozheng said: "Damn, do you think it's a god descending to earth?" I don't believe that I don't send troops, and I will wait for the city, and I don't believe that they can support me for a few days if they can besiege me with only a few troops on an expedition. ”

……

Early in the morning, Shi Yande sent envoys to recruit the guards of Xixian County, but they were refused. After that, Shi Yande sent a small team of soldiers and horses to explore the terrain around Xixian, in order to be precautionary, Shi Yande sent troops to make a feint, and led the Song army of 6,000 soldiers and horses to besiege the West City Gate.

It's just that the guards of the West City Gate did not send troops and waited for ......

Shi Yande immediately picked up the clairvoyant mirror in his hand and observed the situation on the gate of Xixian County, only to see that the number of enemies was about 1,000 people distributed on the city tower.

"Han Baozheng, this is a bluff." Judging from the information that Shi Yande investigated, Han Baozheng is nothing more than that.

And Han Baozheng and Li Jin saw that there were Song troops not far below the city, and he didn't do anything, just let the guards stand at the head of the city and strictly guard against the Shu front.

In winter, the days are already short, and in the cold wind of the silent night, Shi Yande, the commander of the Song army and the horse army, saw the torches at the head of the city in Xixian County, and the Shu army strictly guarded the city. The Shu army was full of torches, refused to fight, and did not attack at night.

At midnight, Shi Yande thought that he could start a siege battle, and he immediately ordered the Song army to launch an offensive towards Xixian.

At this moment, Han Baozheng mistakenly thought that Song Jun would not attack, and at this moment he was sleeping.

The Song army soldiers set up the ladder, the tide of the offensive towards the head of the city of Xixian wave after another, the ladder was soon erected on the city tower, the Song army began to climb on the ladder, and the Shu army at the entrance of the city also began to use giant trees, rolling stones, oil to go down to the ladder.

The ladder was bounced off and the back began to be erected again...... A team of Song troops climbed the city tower and began to fight, and the Shu army above the north city gate fell one by one like fish on a chopping board...... After a fierce battle between the two armies, the Song army completely occupied the North City Gate.

In the night sky, with the defeat of the Shu army, the banner of the Song army began to be planted on the city tower, and then spread throughout the north gate.

"Kill-" The Song army rushed down the city tower with an absolute advantage.

As promised, Shi Yande suddenly heard a dull loud noise from the north gate, and then the drawbridge descended rapidly.

"Great Song Erlang, rush-"

"Kill into Xixian County and capture Han Baozheng alive-"

Shi Yande rode his horse and ran, and the cavalry and infantry behind him began to march towards the north gate. Because Xixian is a small city, there has never been an urn city.

At night, the torches were burning, and the Song army began to enter the outer city, Shi Yande ordered the Song army not to disturb the people, and at the same time, the Song army was divided into four to seize the other eastern, southern, and western gates.

Shi Yande's main force killed the West County Mansion.

"Han recruited the envoy, Deputy Li recruited the envoy, Shi Yande has entered the city, Xixian is not guaranteed, quickly retreat with the last general."

Han Baozheng and Li Jin immediately came out of the palace, put on armor, mobilized troops, and began to break through the siege, wanting to escape from Xixian.

Over there, Lan Siwan led the soldiers and began to resist the Song army that entered the city, but unfortunately Lan Siwan was invincible, and retreated into the house in frustration and died.

Shu Kingdom in the west county? The army was originally smaller than the Song army, and the Song army attacked Xixian at night, many soldiers were killed before they could resist, and others laid down their weapons and surrendered to the Song army.

Shi Yande immediately led his troops to the palace, but the people who entered the house said that Han and Li had fled, Shi Yande was angry, holding a heavy weapon of forty catties in his hand, and rode a war horse to chase the enemy.

In the night, although Han and Li escaped from the city gate, they were unfortunately captured by the black-clothed people who were ambushed here, and then the two were tied to a big tree, and the other hundreds of main generals and deputy generals were captured, and immediately put down their weapons and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.

Shi Yande heard that Han and Li had left the city gate, and hurriedly ordered people to pursue, but he saw the two tied up not far outside the city, and the rest of the soldiers and horses surrendered to the Song army.

In this night raid battle, with Han Baozheng and Li Jin captured, Lan Siwan **, the Song army captured Xixian County, with a total of more than 300,000 grains.

When Wang Quanbin heard that Xixian had been captured, he immediately led his army to Xixian to discuss the next battle plan of the Song army.

In the Xixian Mansion, Wang Quanbin said: "Three places, two places have been down, the triangle is the momentum, and now there is one Xingyuan Mansion left that has not been captured, and the terrain around Xingyuan Mansion is dangerous, but it is more difficult to attack than the other two places." ”

Wang Quanbin said that Xingyuan Mansion, there are Qinling Mountains in the north, Daba Mountain in the south, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the place where the west road of Shannan is made, that is, a corner of the land of Hanzhong. Xingyuan Mansion, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the former Shu, the Later Tang Dynasty, and the Later Shu successively possessed Hanzhong, and still set up Xingyuan Mansion and Yang, Xing two states.

Cui Yan said: "The general of the defenders of Xingyuan Mansion is Yi Xianzheng, this person is Meng Chang's closest minister, and he is in charge of the whole country with Wang Zhaoyuan?" Military. Last year, Meng Chang heard that the Song army was going to attack Shu and ordered him to guard the north gate, which was obviously out of trust in him, but Yi Xianzheng did not seem to be willing to resist our army, so he was reluctant to send troops. ”

"General Cui and General Kang, you immediately lead your troops to Sanquan Mountain and pass through Jianmen Pass."

Xichuan Xingying, deputy commander of Fengzhou Road, Cui Yanjin and Ma Jundu Supervisor Kang Yanze and others rushed north to Sanquan Mountain. And there are plank roads all over there, and the road is difficult...... At the junction in mid-to-late December, the two led their troops to Jiazhou and killed many prisoners.

Over there, the Jiazhou Thorn Shi fled with soldiers and horses to Jiameng Pass, and originally wanted to burn the plank road, but was recognized by the man in black, and the Jiazhou Thorn Shi was killed, and the rout continued to retreat to Jiameng Pass.

At this moment, there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Xingyuan Mansion. Yi Xianzheng left 2,000 people to defend, originally wanting to take the army west to Xixian, but the news that Xixian was captured by the Song army spread back to Xingyuan Mansion. Yi Xianzheng had no choice but to garrison Xingyuan Mansion in a hurry.

When Wang Zhaoyuan was at Jianmen Pass, he heard the news of the loss of Xingzhou and Xixian and the fall of Wenzhou to the Song Dynasty, and immediately took 30,000 soldiers and horses to Xingyuan Mansion.

On December 13, Wang Zhaoyuan went to Xingyuan Mansion
